Hi everyone just want to start a thread and share my progress on Darwinex. I will share the link below.
https://www.darwinex.cn/invest/IME
About me : I have been a trader since 2018 and profitable since 2020. Use to be a manual trader but my strategies needed to be traded around the clock so switched to algorithmic trading in 2022. I so far trade predominantly only trade FX and commodities. My main focus is on breakouts and momentum strategies. I am a great believer in simplicity so most my strategies are generate from very simple ideas in terms of entry criteria but my main focus is on data driven modelling and risk management.
About IME : It is made up of multiple breakout strategies both looking at long and short term movements in the market. I always build my models with very low risk and only risk 0.1% of capital. I monitor each individual strategies metrics week by week and have certain levels where if a strategy in the future is underperforming and is beyond my set level of drawdown for the strategy then it will be removed from the Index and another strategy will be sitting in the background ready to come in.
I understand diversification is key so I am currently in the works of making a second Index which will trade more mean reversion and other type of strategies but only when I am happy with the testing and walk forward analysis on a small account before turning it on live.
I will update how IME is getting on in this thread month by month and am happy to answer any questions anyone may have and interact with other trades.
Hope to hear from some of you
